NE_SSL_CERT_CMP(3)						neon API reference						NE_SSL_CERT_CMP(3)

NAME
ne_ssl_cert_cmp, ne_ssl_cert_free - functions to operate on certificate objects SYNOPSIS
#include <ne_header.h> int ne_ssl_cert_cmp (const ne_ssl_certificate *c1, const ne_ssl_certificate *c2); void ne_ssl_cert_free (ne_ssl_certificate *cert); DESCRIPTION
The ne_ssl_cert_cmp function can be used to compare two certificate objects; it returns zero if they refer to the same certificate, and non-zero otherwise. The ne_ssl_cert_free function can be used to destroy a certificate object when it is no longer needed. AUTHOR

NE_SSL_CERT_IDENTI(3)						neon API reference					     NE_SSL_CERT_IDENTI(3)

NAME
ne_ssl_cert_identity, ne_ssl_cert_signedby, ne_ssl_cert_issuer, ne_ssl_cert_subject - functions to access certificate properties SYNOPSIS
#include <ne_ssl.h> const char *ne_ssl_cert_identity (const ne_ssl_certificate *cert); const ne_ssl_certificate *ne_ssl_cert_signedby (const ne_ssl_certificate *cert); const ne_ssl_dname *ne_ssl_cert_subject (const ne_ssl_certificate *cert); const ne_ssl_dname *ne_ssl_cert_issuer (const ne_ssl_certificate *cert); DESCRIPTION
The function ne_ssl_cert_identity retrieves the ``identity'' of a certificate; for an SSL server certificate, this will be the hostname for which the certificate was issued. In PKI parlance, the identity is the common name attribute of the distinguished name of the certificate subject. The functions ne_ssl_cert_subject and ne_ssl_cert_issuer can be used to access the objects representing the distinguished name of the sub- ject and of the issuer of a certificate, respectively. If a certificate object is part of a certificate chain, then ne_ssl_cert_signedby can be used to find the certificate which signed a par- ticular certificate. For a self-signed certificate or a certificate for which the full chain is not available, this function will return NULL. RETURN VALUE
ne_ssl_cert_issuer and ne_ssl_cert_subject are guaranteed to never return NULL. ne_ssl_cert_identity may return NULL if the certificate has no specific ``identity''. ne_ssl_cert_signedby may return NULL as covered above. EXAMPLES
The following function could be used to display information about a given certificate: void dump_cert(const ne_ssl_certificate *cert) { const char *id = ne_ssl_cert_identity(cert); char *dn; if (id) printf("Certificate was issued for '%s'. ", id); dn = ne_ssl_readable_dname(ne_ssl_cert_subject(cert)); printf("Subject: %s ", dn); free(dn); dn = ne_ssl_readable_dname(ne_ssl_cert_issuer(cert)); printf("Issuer: %s ", dn); free(dn); } SEE ALSO
